You Can't Run Away From Love

You Can't Run Away From Love

Brief Description:
Before I began with this story, I just want to inform you all what it is about. This is my third story as a author, so if it seems amature, ignore it. The main focus for this story was for you all to enjoy it, so yeah, let me just get to the plot instead of la-le gagging (lol).

The story is about a 25 year old woman named Honor. She works for (suprise;)) Nick Lachey as his personal [arse]istant. During the time, she also is dating the all but too cute singer Jeff timmons (cause I've been dying to write one with him). When Nick and Honor are stranded in (hmmm, what sounds good to you?) a little island in Fiji because of a hurricane, destined to kill them both, the two fall into a endless love triangle. When the two DO survive, there are brought back to thier lovers. Spite this, the two still remain lovers in secret and...blah, blah, blah.

Sorry to cut ya short, but I can't tell you the WHOLE story. Well, I hope that the brief summary has gotten you at least intrigued and if not, oh well, it was worth the shot. And if it sounds like a romance novel, you can blame it all on Jude Deveraux. After reading one of her books, I was inspired to write this so don't be too harsh if it sounds like a sappy love story :p;)!!


Your fellow author,

You Can't Run AWAy From Love

Chapter 1
Honor smiled as she looked over at Nick. He was frustrated, she already knew. She could tell by the way that his eyebrows wer knitted togather, the way he stuffed his hands in his pocket as he hurridly walked down the airports halls. She also knew that, more than anything, his eyes were giving it away the most. The shining light that usually was placed within them were replaced with slight worry and anger. She couldn't blame him, she would be too, but there were always these dissappointments when it came down to it. Especially in this buisness.
"Wanna talk about it? she asked once they were sitting down, waiting for the plane to be seated.
"No." he bluntly replied.
"You know, there just being foolish." she added, hoping to rise his spirits.
"But its been five times this month. FIVE. Do you know how long its been since they have announced me without Jessica being named with it." he finally burst.
She knew this was the problem from the start, but wanted him to admit if first handly.
"Nick I understand. I do. It took me forever to be cleared of being Mr. Ransòins daughter. I know the feeling, I do, but its what comes in being with this buisness. Especially when it comes down to you and your...urg, wife." she stopped herself short before she blurted out something she knew she shouldn't. Something that was very evident, but didn't want to tell Nick just yet. Not so early in thier buisness relationship.
"I suppose." he sighed before looking over at her and smiling.
"So how are you and your chubby Bf?"
"Jeff is not-" The flight attendent cut her short.
" Flight 697 is now boarding, I repeat, flight 697 is now boarding."
"Well continue this later." Honor said standing up and walking toward the terminal. Once they got situated, she immediatly looked over at Nick and said,
"Jeff is not, nor near being chubby. Where in the hell did you get that concept, seeing as Jeff benches 200 and let's not remind you of those bicepts."
"My bad, my bad." Nick laughed.
"Really, why did you say that?"
"Just wanted to see a reaction is all I suppose. Though, now I can confirm and tell Jeff that this time he has a real keeper."
Honor smiled at this, remembering a time when she thought that Jeff and his "friends" would never accept her, especially because she was five years younger than him.
"Well thanks. Now you can gush to him how much I miss him, and love him, and completly feel like a idiot for falling for another Lachey antic." Honor said giving a slight chuckle.
"But of course." Nick nodded. He was full aware of how one day Jeff had suprised them all by showing up with someone who wasn't Trish. He was also aware how they had been cautious through encounters with her, but with time, truly believed that she loved him back. Now as he looked at his personal agent, a twenty five year old with sparkly green eyes that were so dark they looked turquoise, long, sleek black hair, and a smile that could stretch a mile, he knew that for sure Jeff wasn't going to let her go. As much as he rambled about her, she did of him. They were so in love he finally knew what Justin meant when he spoke of love so pure it was sickening from the other eye. And the fact that she took Alyssa and Jeff Jr. in with open arms only made Jeff love her twice as much. In fact, he could see why, Honor was close to perfection when it came to the ideal woman, though her busy schedule could be the reason for lack of lovers within the future.
"So your going to be staying in L.A for awhile, right?" Honor asked, popping him out of his thoughts,
"Of course I'm going to be. Why wouldn't I be?" Nick asked, looking over at her.
She hesistated. Finally, she said,
"Its just that....well, Jeff's birthday is coming up soon. Well, rather soon. And I wanted to suprise him by taking me, and Lyssa, and double J out to see thier daddy, seeing as he's been on tour for quite some time......"
"I understand." Nick said raising his hand and nodding his head.
"Thanks, I owe you big." she smiled as she pulled on her headphones and laid her head back.

CHAPTER 2
Jeffrey Brandon Timmons sighed happily as he walked into the black limo that his job had provided him and started to drive him back to his hotel. Sure he loved the life of touring, to see his fans once again. But he missed his kids terribly, and more than that, he missed his girlfriend as much. He didn't know why, but she did something to him. Something that was good for both his heart and his soul. And soon, very, very, soon, he was too make her his wife. The thought never failed to go through his mind, he could never doubt his feelings for her. He was interrupted from his thoughts when his cell phone rang.
"Hello." he answered in a happy but tired tone.
"Hi daddy. How r you dowing?" he heard his four year old daughters, Alyssa, voice say through the other line.
"hey baby. I'm doing fine, other than not being able to see you."
he heard her giggle before saying,
"Aww me and lil J.J. missies you toooo daddy. But we pwomised too stay vewy good, and mommie hasn't gotten mad at us all day." she announced proudly into the phone. Jeff smiled happily.
"Well that's good. You know, I think Honor is flying into town today. You may just be able to stay the night with her." At the sound of this Alyssa giggled in delight.
"Yay!! Well den, I need to go becwause if Honor is comwing to get us, then we need to pack. So, me will talk to you later daddy, and me and lil bwother love you vewy much."
"I love you too sweethart. And my minnie me. Talk to you later."
"bye." Alyssa said before hanging up.
"And the only thing that's missing is a call from my honey." Jeff sighed as they pulled up to thier hotel.

Honor waved at Nick one more time, before stepping into her car and driving off. She was glad that this was the beginning to her six week break, and even more relieved to know that fourty eight hours from now she would be by Jeff's side. Even at the thought of him she smiled, and called him, hoping to not get his machine for the fifth time that day.
"hello?" she heard his masculine voice say from the other line.
"Hello." she said casually, hoping to play games with his head.
"Yeah, uhh....who's this?"
"hmmm, you gotta guess."
Jeff looked down at his phone and smiled.
"Why would an angel make me guess? Especially since I haven't talked to her in twenty-four hours."
"Aww, you guessed." she pouted, then beamed again.
"I miss you."
"I miss you too."
"Sometimes I wish that I was choosen to be your agent instead of Nick's."
"but whoever would of watched the kids?" he said in mock distress. Honor giggled.
"You know who would of. That wouldn't have to even be a problem............the problem would be how would we manage not being attached to each other twenty-four seven."
"Which is exactly why we weren't paired off."
"I knew we shouldn't have told everyone we dated." honor said, snapping her fingers. Jeff laughed.
"It would of came out eventually. and besides that, I could just see one of my friends accidently telling the world. Or I would of slipped it up."
honor nodded.
"I suppose your right. What are you doing tonight?"
"Hmmm, stay in the hotel room, go over a few songs, and get ready for the next concert in New York."
"Damn, if it wasn't for Nick, I would of been able to stay longer and meet up wtih you."
"That would be nice. But I kinda told Lyssa that you were going to go over there so...."
"Oh lord Timmons, when I get my hands on you-"
"What about when you get your hands on me?" Jeff cut her off with a sly tone.
"Jeffrey Brandon, either get your mind off the gutter or forget about any kisses I was going to grant you next time I saw you." Honor said in a semi-strict tone. Jeff laughed.
"Just kidding honey. But I'm a guy, its a natural instinct."
"Uh huh. yeah, sure. Whatever."
"It is."
"Right, anyways...."
"Yeah anyways..."
"Jeff, I really do miss you. I really really miss you." Honor groaned as she pulled up into Trish's driveway.
"I miss you two baby." he whispered back.
"Two days every three weeks just isn't enough."
"tell me. But I'll be off tour soon...."
"And then you and 98 degreees are going to be back in the studio so..."
"All right, I'm caught. but I'll be home, and it might not be a 9 to 5 job but I'll get to hold you close all through the night......"
"Jeffrey Timmons. What did I tell you about that mind?"
"Ok, Ok, I'm stopping." Jeff chuckled.
"yeah, well baby, I gotta go. I'm outside Trish's, and I'm sure Alyssa is already waiting impatiently, especially when her daddy ruined the surprise."
"I'm sowwy. Pwease forgive me?" Jeff said, mimicking his daughter.
"Jeff, don't do that, especially when I can't see you. You don't deserve to be forgiven. I really wanted to suprise them."
"Pwease?"
"all right, all right. but I really got to go." Honor laughed.
"all right. I have to go myself, but when you and our rugrats have gotten situated at home, call me. I love you." he said before hanging up the phone. Honor stared at it for a while, then smiled. 'Our Rugrats' kept on running through her head. It was the first time Jeff had even [arse]iociated his family with her. She shook of her goofy happiness, then got out her car. She didn't want to keep Alyssa waiting for that long.

Nick Lachey smiled as he saw his wife pull up and honk outside the airport. Smiling, he got up and walked toward the car, knowing the grudge he had played into his head would wear off the second he stepped into the car.
"hey baby, I missed you." Jessica smiled as she got out the car and ran around to give him a hug.
"I missed you two." he muttered back, taking in the smell of her hair.
"The house has been so lonely without you there." she said once she pulled away and they had put his suitcases away.
"Well, I'm sure Ashley and your mom stopped by. And Carrie, and Lea"
"Well it wasn't empty, it was just lonely. I hate not being able to wake up next to you every morning."
"me too sweetums. But I'm here to stay for six weeks."
"hmm, I know." she smiled at him, then frowned.
"Where's Honor?"
"Oh she left her car here, so she went to go pick up Lyssa and J.J., then head over to her place. She won't be in town long, her and the kids are going to New York to suprise Jeff for his birthday."
"Aww, how sweet. They really are cute togather. To the point where its sickening."
"tell me about." Nick said rolling his eyes.
"What?" Jessica laughed as she entered the freeway.
"Its just that, for the past month all I heard was 'how sweeet Jeff was' or 'how handsome he was' and lets not even get started on Jeff." he rolled his eyes again, looking out the window.
Jessica laughed harder this time, glancing over at him.
"Well you can't blame either one of them. I mean, there one of a kind."
"Yeah, don't remind me." Nick mumbled underneath his breathe, looking out the window. Jessica gave him a wierd look before shrugging her shoulders and continuing to drive.

Great story, Britt :)

[Biondo Sorto]

Thanks, I thought there was only one person reading this for a while :LOL:
Chapter 3
Honor smiled as she looked at a laughing Alyssa and a grumpy Jeff Jr. Alyssa had managed to grab J's bottle from him, and, in the process, had managed to make him hit himself upside his own head. Now he was mean-muggin Alyssa, who continued to laugh.
"all right you two, how about we change into our jama's. Honor said as she appeared in the doorway.
"Aww, do we have too. I mean, couldn't we stay in our wegular clothes for just a wittle wonger?" Alyssa asked, giving Honor a puppy dog pout.
"Don't give me that puppy dog stare. Now get into your jammies while I change Jeff Jr. into his. Then we can all call your daddy and talk to him."
Alyssa thought about this before standing up and saying, "Otay" and running out the room to put on her pajamas.
"Your sister is really going to be something when she gets older." Honor said shaking her head as she changed Jeff into his Baby Looney Toons pajamas. In return, he just looked at her and giggled. Pretty soon they were all situtaed on the couch, waiting for Jeff to pick up the phone.
"Hello." he said on the last ring.
"Hewwo!!" Honor and Alyssa said before busting into a giggle fest. This made Jeff squeal with laughter.
"So my two angels and my big boy finally decided to call me, eh?"
"Of couwse daddy. Why wouldn't we, We just had to eat dinner and change into our jammies and we WOULD take a bath but Honor said that we can wait until tomowo mowning." Alyssa said before she plotted herself in Honor's lap.
"Oh she did, did she?"
"Uh huh. And she is so much better than mommie. She let us eat all the junk food tat we wanted too. No veggies tonight daddy."
"Now that's not going to become a habit. You need to eat your vegetables so you become a pretty girl."
"but daddy, aren't I alweady a pwetty girl."
"What your daddy means is that you should eat it more often so you can not be pwetty, so you can become prettiful." Honor cut in.
"Ohhh....like you?"
"Yep, just like Honor." Jeff chipped in.
Honor blushed before turning to Alyssa.
"Sweetie, why don't you go pick us out a movie while I talk to your daddy real quick." Honor said, taking the conversation off of speaker phone.
"Hmmm, Otay!!" Alyssa smiled before running of toward the movie section in the house.
"She sounds contempt. And Jeff did too."
"yeah, he kinda is dozing in and out. I don't think he'll be able to stay up for the whole movie."
"whatcha watching?"
"Finding Nemo most likely."
"Aww, your favowite movie."
"Shut-up." Honor smiled.
"So anyways...."
"yeah anyways."
"Hmm, well I be able to see you for my birthday?" Jeff asked.
"Well....I don't see why not. But, I don't know, I wanted to spend some more time with our rugrats."
"Its all right. I was just wondering is all......" Honor could hear the dissapointment in his voice.
"Baby, I'll be OUT there. It just may not be for your birthday."
"Its all right sweetums, I understand."
"Suuuurrrrreeee."
"I DO!!"
"Jeff when I-"
"When you what?"
"When I-" She was cut off once again by Alyssa's voice.
"Lets watch Finding Nemo. Its our favowite, `memeber."
"you hear that."
"Gotcha. Well Love ya. Talk to you later."
"Love you too baby. See ya." Honor said before slowly hanging up the phone.

"Jessica Ann Simpson. What in the hell..." Nick muttered as he walked into his gameroom.
"Suprise!! Do you like?" She squealed from behind. Nick looked around his room and sighed. Jessica had done some drastic things, but this was just TOO much. She had completly painted the room purple, added some too flashy lights as a border around the room, completly re-arranged the room...and to top it off she had gotten rid of his 1 leaf plant. It was actually making a combat, it just needed time. Patient was a virtue, just like he felt he needed to do right now.
"What did you do?" he asked calmly.
"I moved around everything, and painted it, and I got rid of that god ridden plant, and don't you like it? Drew said you would." Nick looked at her and could of keeled over from laughter. DREW thought that he would like this? he apparently needed to speak to his brother.
"Its not that I don't like it honey. Its just....well, it is quite a lot, don't you think?"
"I think it looks nice. And its so much entertaining."
"hmmm, yeah, I guess." he said, still trying to take in all of the flashy lights and the color, lord forbid whoever blessed the world with such a bright purple.
"You don't like it, do you?" she pouted as he looked away. he did NOT need those pouty lips today...tomorrow, right now.
"Baby I do...I'm just tooken of guard."
"Cause you always suprise me, so I wanted to suprise you." She suprised him all right.
"Its all right baby...it is. I just, baby, I'm going to go call Honor and ask her about tomorrows photo shot before she heads out of town." he said quickly before turning around and walking out the door. As soon as he was out of earshot he took out his cell phone and called Honor's townhome complex.
"hello." she answered on the first ring.
"Please tell me that you knew about the whole 'purple room'?"
"So you finally discovered it, eh?"
"Discovered it? More like explored it."
"nick it can't be that bad."
"You'll see tomorrow. Then you'll KNOW that I'm not over-exaggerating."
"Ok, I know that lately Jessica has been doing things to impress you but lets not go overboard."
"I won't, its just a lot to take it in."
"So, instead of complain` to me about it, why don't you tell the person who it'll matter most to like you know, your wife?"
"hmmm, you know Jess."
"I do, thanks to you."
Nick chuckled before proceeding to say,
"Really, she'll make a big deal out of it."
"but isn't that what marriage is all about?"
Nick thought about it and knew he couldn't disagree. She was right.
"How do you know what to always say?"
"I'm paid to?"
Nick laughed at her before saying,
"Well see you later."
"Bye. Until tomorrow."
"see ya." Nick hung up his phone and turned around.
"I'll make a big DEAL about it?!" Jessica asked flabbergasted.

Jeff sighed as he hung up his phone. This sucked. This absloutly sucked. I mean, she couldn't see him, and he was really looking for to seeing her this weekend. He could only be grateful that she was coming, but it still depressed him to know that he wouldn't be able to see her this weekend. He was snapped out of his thoughts when he heard someone knocking on his door.
"Comin." he said pulling on some sweats before opening the door.
"J? What are you doing here?" he asked both happy and surprised to see his friend.
"thought that I'd come and see you before you head out to New York. That way I wouldn't have to worry about anyone ruining me coming to see you before your big day."
"oh yeah, big 31. I wonder why Honor still stays with an old man like me. Especially when she has more to live for."
"For starters, Jeff, your not old. Secondly, she lives for you....she LOVES you."
"hmm, I suppose."
"No you know. Oh by the way, is the crew coming out here this weekend?"
"Hmmm....I don't think so."
"Why?"
"ask honor."
"I think I'll do that."

Chapter 4
"Jessi, you know what I mean." Nick sighed as he looked over at his wife.
"No, No I don't. What do you mean when you say I'll make a big [i}deal[/i} about it?"
"Its just, I don't want you to take it personally, but the room is just so much. TOO much for the eye."
She looked at him, sighed, then turned around.
"Whatever." She said before walking into the kitchen. Nick sighed as he followed her.
"Baby I do appreciate you suprising me. Its just, you got to suprise me with stuff that isn't too out of the...ordinare. Like.....I don't know, A new video game or something. Not, well, not what is in our game room."
"I understand. I do. You could of at least be more.....how do I put this, HONEST with the whole idea" she said, turning around at him and giving him the eye.
"What do you mean?"
"Why don't you ever tell me what's up. Why do you always turn around and tell Honor?"
I sighed. I should of seen this one coming.
"Because, lately, its only been Honor and me. I haven't seen you in a long time, and well, I'm used to coming clean with her."
"So what, now Honor is your wife? I thought I was the one who married you Nicholas Scott."
"You are but-"
"Oh you just forgot for the past three months. Last I checked Honor was with Jeff not you." she cut him off.
"Well you see-"
"What Nicholas, what?"
"I mean, it seems like now, more than ever, I can't do a damn thing right without you being mentioned. I mean damn, baby, I'm proud that this is the highlight of your career but it gets tiring that they drop ME because YOU seem to be the blossoming star. And I get to sit back and enjoy. Dang, I want to endure in a career too, and it [freak]in sucks because now I can't go anywhere without your name being [freak]in [arse]ociated with mine. Damn, is it so bad that Honor see's that, but is too polite to tell me? She's the only one who seems to understand cause lately it seems that your too wrapped up in yourself to notice!!" he yelled at her.
Jessica looked flabbergasted, looked down, then back at him with tears rimming her eyes.
"Well if you feel that [freak]in way, fine. You can sleep on the couch tonight, maybe there you can [arse]ociate without me!!" she yelled, turning around and running up the stairs.
"[freak] nick, what did you get yourself into?" Nick mumbled to himself, taking a seat on the couch.

"Well, why you call her I'm going to take a shower." Jeff sighed getting up and walking to the bathroom.
"all right." Justin said and waited for him to close the door. Then he picked up the phone and quickly dialed Honor's phone number.
"Halo." she replied absent-mindly on the first ring.
"Why aren't you coming to New York to see your boyfriend?"
"because.......wait, who is this?"
"Justin. Now explain."
"Is Jeff there?"
"yes, he's taking a shower."
"is the water on?"
"As a matter of fact," he waited to hear the shower water, "yeah."
"Good. I am going to go out there."
"Then why does he have the impression you aren't?"
"Because me, and his son, and his daughter are going out there to suprise him."
"Oh." Justin said, sitting back down and relaxing.
"Yeah oh. is he all right though. he didn't sound so happy when I told him."
"he's not but I'm staying until after his birthday so I'll cheer him up until you show up."
"you sure you can cheer him up the way I can......"
"yeah I-" Justin stopped short realizing what she was talking about.
"Aww come on. That's sick!!" he said, making a face.
"I'm just kiddin. Can't you take a joke?" honor giggled into the phone.
"Not when it concerns me and my best friend....coming closer then we already are,"
"I understand."
"Yeah I-" Justin stopped when he saw the bathroom door turn.
"Gotta go Honor. He sure did take a short shower."
"Poor hombristo. Well, see ya Friday."
"Meaning I have to, well, NYA" he said as he gave Jeff a look who took a seat on his bed.
"Yep, got to pick us up at the New York Airport. Friday at four. hear he's doing a sound check so you should have time to spare."
"plenty of time. bye." Justin said as he looked over at Jeff who had turned on the TV.
"Well..?" he asked looking over at Justin.
"She and Nick have a photoshoot. you know, buisness calls."
"Ahh, of course." Jeff said nodding his head, and returning his eyes to the TV.

[StargateGirl]

HI! :) :D

Jrotc drill? what's that?

I'm sorry about your grandfather. :( [hug]

[Raevengeance]

Great add, Britt :)

[Biondo Sorto]

Aww thanks Rae. I got your email, replied back....and I'm gonna add Chapter 5 after this.....

[Biondo Sorto]

Chapter 5
"I'll be back tomorrow Trish. Yeah, you know his birthday is this Saturday. I thought it was next week too, until I looked at my calender. yeah, some clothes to last them a week...if we stay longer I'm sure I can pick us up some more. yeah, thanks again, and remember shh. Wanna make it a suprise. I'll talk to ya later, uh huh, bye." Honor hung up the phone before she rang the door bell to Nick and Jessica's house. She was suprised when she saw Jessica heading out the door, not looking like her chippy happy go lucky self.
"hey honor." she mumbled opening the door and returning to her purse, re-checking all of her things.
"hey Jess. What's up."
She shrugged.
"You all right?"
Again a shrug.
"wanna talk about it?"
She shook her head.
"well, I'm here. Not for long, I leave tomorrow."
"oh that's right. Your leaving to go to New York to meet with Jeff, right?"
"Uh huh."
"he'll be happy AND suprised."
"I do hope so." she smiled at her. Jessica smiled back.
"I can't be mad at you when its my husband that got me feeling this way to begin with."
"aww, marriage trouble."
"yep, talk to ya later."
"see ya." she said as she walked to the living room where Nick and Drew happened to be.
"You know, the photographer is to be here soon."
"I'm ready." he mumbled.
Honor looked at Drew who just shook his head.
"you told her and I see it didn't seem as one of the smartest things to do in the world."
"Yeah, in fact it was the dumbest."
"Maybe you came across it...." she stopped when she saw Drew shaking his head.
"wrong." she finished slowly.
"Maybe." he mumbled before getting up and walking toward the kitchen.
"Hmm this doesn't seem like a fight that there not going to get over soon," she replied flatly.
"hardly, in fact I think its one of the worst so far."
"oh gosh. This is going to be a long day" she mumbled underneath her breathe.

"Are we there yet?" Justin mumbled looking at him.
"J, we weren't there 10 minutes ago, we weren't there yet 5 minutes ago and guess what, were not there now."
"but damn, this is just such a long bus ride."
"yeah, that's why they call it touring."
"Please don't remind me. I don't even remember what a "tour" is" he sighed.
"I couldn't tell." Jeff replied flatly.
"hmmm, I think I'm going to call..Chanèle."
"you do that. I'll call Honor."
"right." he smiled before walking off. Jeff shook his head as he took out his cell phone and dialed the all too familiar number.
"hello." Honor answered in a ex[arse]aprated voice.
"Hey baby. What's wrong?"
"Oh nothing...." she sighed.
"baby, it not good to lie."
"I know."
"Then tell me what's wrong."
"I can't."
"oh and why not. When did Honor Ransòìn start keeping secerts from me."
Jeff heard her give a small chuckle before replying,
"but I can't tell you because I don't even know what's wrong."
"all right, well....ummm, how can something be wrong if you don't even know?"
"No, its not me its Nick. And gosh, he won't speak up and he has a photoshoot and I just don't want to deal with his attitude unless he can give me a valid reason which he isn't so I'm just going to [arse]ume he's PMSing and see, that's my problem." she all said in one breathe. He gave a low chuckle before saying,
"baby, do you know how sexy you sound when your worried?"
Now she gave him a giggle, a soft, low, yet sexy one before saying,
"No Mr. Timmons, inform me."
"Normally I would but seeing as your thousands of miles away from me...."
"Oh were not that far away. and get your head out the gutter."
"When it comes to you, never. And it is far away."
"Oh puhlease." she stated.
"When you haven't seen someone in three weeks..."
"Jeff I told you>" Honor started to whine.
"I know you told me. And I understand that Nick has a photoshoot but can't you get someone to replace you. can nick survive without you for a whole day?"
"I already tried to weasle myself out of the..uhh photoshoot. And of course Nick can't survice a whole day, I left him for less than 24 hours and he already has himself in a mess."
"Oh right. "
"Yep."
"I guess I should be grateful to be seeing you period. And when I do..."
"Oh lord Timmons."
"you got me started."
"I can only imagine how it is going to end."
"yeah well I gotta go. Justin called Chanele and I want to bother her."
"You do that you. and remeber, I love you."
Jeff smiled from the other end.
"I love you too."
"yeah well I love you more."
"No, I love you more."
"But I love you the mostest."
"And i REALLY love you the mostest."
"and I-"
"WANT THE BOTH OF YOU TO SHUT-UP. YOU BOTH LOVE EACH OTHER, GET OVER IT!!" they heard Drew yell in the background.
"Well you heard him." Honor laughed.
"yeah babe I did. Well I'll see you soon."
"yep. and remember, I love you." she said hanging up her phone and looking over at Drew.
What?" she said in mock defense.
"And I thought my brother and sister in law was bad." Drew said shaking his head.

Chapter 6
"Knock, knock." Honor said before opening the door to Nick and Jessica's room.
"Whaddaya want?" nick mumbled.
"I wanna know what's up? What in the hell happened between you and Jessi?"
"We fought."
"Because....."
"I said some not so nice things."
"About?" Honor said taking a seat to where he was laying.
"About how I feel about all the media attention she has been recieving and how i feel I'm getting the short hand."
"Oh." honor said before she looked down.
"so after this your gone."
"For a week. maybe later."
"right."
"so you know your going to have to dig yourself outta this one by yourself."
"gonna have to go solo eh?" he joked.
"seems like it."
"hope you have fun." he finally said after a while.
"I know I will. but come on, i left Lachey number two down there.....can't keep him and the photographer waiting."
"right." nick smiled at her.
They both got up and walked out the door.

"you know, haven't been out here in a while." Justin said, looking over at Jeff. They had just got situated in thier hotel, after there two day bus ride.
"I thought you and Chanele.."
"naw, remember the car accident."
"oh yeah." Jeff nodded.
"so I hear you got a soundcheck at one."
"yep. care to drop by."
"Nope gotta few errands to run." Justin said getting up.
"Its my birthday and you decided to just desert me?" Jeff said in mock distress.
"Don't worry, I got the whole night planned."
"What? Guys night out?" Jeff laughed.
"Something of that sort." Justin smiled, then looked down at his watch.
"Its about to be one. I gotta be somewhere and you got to be down at the plaza....."
"Are you SURE all you got to do is run some errands."
"of course. I gotta go do some shopping....."
"J so last minute." Jeff laughed as he scooped up his jacket.
"They don't call me the last minute man for nothing!" Justin joked.

"Where in the hell is he." Honor mumbled as she took a seat near baggage claim.
"where is who, honow?" Alyssa asked as she looked up from her coloring book.
"Uncle J sweetie, he's supposed to be picking us up." Honor said, looking down at Alyssa.
"Why doesn't daddy just pick us up?"
"Cause we are supposed to suprise daddy for his birthday, remember." honor smiled down at Alyssa.
"Ohhh!!" Alyssa smiled, then looked down at her coloring book. Honor shook her head, checked on Jeff Jr. to see if he was still sleeping, then looked back up to look for Justin. After a couple of minutes she spotted him walking toward them.
"Finally!" she laughed as he neared her.
"it wasn't my fault. your boyfriend kept on questioning me and I wasn't about to tell him you were in town." he smiled down at her.
"of course." honor smiled hugging him, then nudging Alyssa.
"ohhh, hi Uncle J!" she screeched, dropping her book and giving Justin a hug.
"hey baby girl, how are you doing?" he said smiling down at her.
"Good.....whewe is daddy? oh yeah....supwise wight Honor."
"Wight." honor said mocking Alyssa.
"well anyways, lets get you girls situated."Justin said standing up and grabbing thier suitcases.
"Don't forget little guys." Honor said picking up Jeff Jr.
"Of course." Justin laughed.
"So when did you guys want to suprise him?" Justin asked out in the car.
"I don't know, I was thinking during the show. I'd come out with Alyssa and Jeff Jr. and maybe we'd be singing happy birthday to him or something. I don't know."
"That could work. Then his fans could actually smile, now that would be cool." Justin laughed.
"We get to sing fo' daddy?" Alyssa asked from the back seat of the car.
"yep but wemember, its a secret." Honor said looking back at her and smiling.
"All right." Alyssa giggled and continued to color.
"This should be a very interesting night, indeed." Justin smiled.

[Biondo Sorto]

[Biondo Sorto]

Chapter 7
Nick sighed as Jessica walked into the door.
"Hey." he gave her a half smile. She disregaded him and walked upstairs to thier room. He sighed and followed.
"All right Jess, I understand your mad. hear me out for ten minutes and i'll leave you alone for the rest of the night." she turned and looked at him.
"What?" she finally asked.
"I hope what i said you didn't take personally. I do love you and i just want you to know that. I was just upset cause i feel that i have been taken advantage. I took it out on you, and i shouldn't have. Could you forgive me?" She looked at him and bite her tongue.
"Well....."
"You can't resist me...." he started to give his infamous pout.
"Nick..." Jessica whined.
"And i do love you." he took a seat beside her. She sighed.
"I love you too." she gave him a half smile. he smiled back and laid down.
"Just don't go off on me like that. And stop running to Honor for everything, it makes me feel less of a wife."
"All right, I promise." Nick smiled.
"Good." Jessica smiled at her.

Honor nervously looked over at Justin. They were already at the arena, and Jeff was already half way in his concert.
"Ya nervous."
"Just a tad bit." Honor said. Justin raised a brow.
"or a lot. A lot, a lot." she admittdly rambled. Justin laughed.
"It'll be all right. Just let me go on stage, do my thing, and you and Alyssa go on and sing"
"Right." Honor nodded. He gave her a heads up and walked off. Honor inwardly sighed while Alyssa tugged on her pants.
"Yeah baby." She said bending down to her level.
"I'm scawed." Alyssa said. Honor smiled.
"Me too, but think about how happy dad will be when he see's us singing for him." Alyssa thought about this and then smiled.
"All wight, just for daddy." she smiled. Honor smiled and hugged her.
"Hey honor, get ready." Justin said walking on to stage.
"This is it, now or never." Honor mumbled, checking herself again, and then grabbing her mike, waiting for her cue.

Jeff gave Justin a confused look when he walked up on stage.
"Hey guys!! How are you all enjoy the concert so far?" he asked. He got a loud scream for the answer. he nodded. Jeff wiped the sweart offf of his forehead and looked on in amusement.
"Well, as you guys know its my pals, Jeff's, birthday today." Again screams.
"And as a present," he continued on.
"i decided to get him something that even money can't buy." he said looking over at Jeff. Jeff gave him a wierd look before he heard her voice. He looked over at the stage entrance as she walked up with Alyssa on one of his hands.
"Happy birthday to you.." she began. Then Alyssa said,
"Happy birthday to you." Together they sang,
"Happy birthday dear Jeffrey (daddy). Happy Birthday to you." she finished it off with a smile. jeff smiled at her as she came up to him.
"Happy birthday baby." His smile got wider before he said,
"Its a very happy birthday indeed." and leaned down to kiss her. This got holler after holler from the crowd, and a beaming Alyssa jumping up and down. Finally they pulled away and Jeff raised the mike to his lips, never letting Honor go.
"This next song I wanna dedicate to my two favorite stars in the world. You know what this means to me." Honor smiled as he began singing the lyrics to Favorite Star.

[Biondo Sorto]

Nick smiled happily over at Jessica, then frowned.
"What?" she asked, resting her head on her hand.
"I have to call Honor."
"Why?" Jessica asked annoyed.
"I forgot about this cruise thing I have to do next week. She needs to know, in fact its crucial she knows." he said getting up and grabbing his phone. He dialed her cell phone number and patiently waited for her to pick up.
"Hey you've reached Honor, I'm not in right now...." he heard her machine says.
"Drats." he mumbled, throwing his phone back on the nightstand. Jessica crawled over to him and rested her head on his shoulder.
"It can wait 'till tomorrow. Why don't we get back to what we were currently doing?" she raised a brow. He gave her a half smile.
"You don't have to tell me twice."

Honor pulled away from Jeff's grasp and reached for her phone, not catching the person on the other end.
"Its Nick, I wonder what's up." she said, looking at her caller ID.
"Who cares what's up. Nick's a big boy, he can take care of himself. I on the other hand-" Honor looked over at him and laughed.
"Jeff it'll take me three minutes for the upmost."
"But its my birthday. I'm supposed to have you all to myself." he snuggled his head into her neck.
"You will, just hold on." she said re-dialing Nick's cell number. He picked up on the last ring.
"Hello." he panted into the phone.
"I don't even what to know." Honor smiled. Nick laughed.
"Believe me, you don't." She rolled her eyes then said,
"So what was it that you wanted?"
"Bill called. He wanted to talk to you about a cruise for next week."
"When next week."
"The departure day is Thursday evening. Its a big fundraising event." Honor bit her bottom lip and thought about this.
"You wanna do it?"
"I haven't been on a cruise in a long time."
"It shouldn't be too bad. We'd be back for Good Morning America, right?" Nick laughed.
"We come back that Wednesday afternoon."
"I'll call him tomorrow and arrange everything."
"Tomorrow? Why can't you do it now?"
"Cause I'm kinda busy."
"Ohh."
"Yeah butt head, so I'll talk to you tomorrow."
"I'm the butt head cause your finally getting some-"
"Bye Nick." Honor said hanging up the phone. Jeff looked up at her.
"What was that all about."
"You don't want to know." Honor laughed. Jeff smiled.
"did he tease you about getting some?"
"You pig headed apes!! No!!!"
"Cause you know you are."
"Jeffrey don't even start with me."
"What? Justin took Alyssa and little JJ for the evening..."
"As a relief." honor reminded him.
"We got the champaigne."
"I may get thirsty."
"The chocalate covered strawberry's." he started to kiss her neck.
"Those are really good."
"were both in the mood."
"correction, your in the mood. I'm tired."
"You won't be after I'm through with you." he said in a low voice. Honor gaped at him and then laughed.
"Your too much for me Timmons."
"This is exactly why you love me." he smiled back at her.
"Come here." she growled, rolling on top of him.

Chapter 8
Nick woke up expecting to see Jessica, but saw an empty space instead. He sat up and looked around.
"Jess?" he yelled, expecting an answer. instead there was silence. He walked downstairs and looked around. It was evident that Jessica had been down there by the mess that he saw before him. He sighed, grabbed the phone and dialed her cell phone number.
"hello?" he heard a familiar voice ask.
"Tina, you know where Jess is."
"She had a photo shoot. After that she has to fly out to florida for a couple of interviews."
Nick sighed.
"Do you know if she's coming back tonight."
"Later on this week."
Nick kept in his frustration, then said,
"Thanks Tina."
"You welcome nick." he hung up the phone.
"This is just [freak]in great." he mumbled, walking back upstairs to his room.

"Jeff, are you ever gonna let me go?" honor smiled up at Jeff as he woke up. he looked around a bit, then looked back down at her.
"Nope, your mine forever and ever." he smiled, bringing her closer to him.
"I'm sure." she laughed. she looked over at the nightstand.
"Justin should be bringing the two little tots soon."
"So." Jeff mumbled, started to kiss her neck.
"I doubt you want your kids to see you in the state were both in, right?"
"They won't mind."
"I'm sure Justin will."
"So we'll keep them outside the door for a minute or two." Jeff said rolling on top of her. Shelaughed and shook her head.
"Your going to get up and take a shower and get dressed. The five of us are supposed to go site-seeing. Remember?"
"We can go site-seeing in our room." jeff chuckled. She pinched his back.
"Ow!! What was that for?" he exclaimed, laying down on her chest.
"Get your hormones in check and maybe that wouldn't have happened." She laughed.
"But my hormones like-"
"Don't even finish that sentence Timmons." She warned pushing him off of her.
"Fine I'll go take a shower, however I've been taking them alone for so long...."
"Let me call Justin and tell him that we may take longer than I've expected." She laughed reaching over for the phone.

[Biondo Sorto]

Nick ran down the stairs seeing his brother at the door.
"Hey sprout."
"Hey. You seem in a chippier mood. Does that mean you and Jessica are all cleared?" he asked placing his helmet on a nearby table and taking off his jacket.
"Yeah, at least we were. She left this morning."
"Okay...."
"Without telling me."
Drew nodded.
"Are you back to square one again?" he asked as they both walked into the living room.
"It seems and feels like it." Nick sighed.
"I swear Nick, can't you guys get this marriage thing figured out?" Drew laughed. Nick shook his head.
"You know I'm not you Mr. Married for four years."
"And counting." Drew smiled, leaning back on the counter. He missed and fell on the floor instead.
"Very suave." Nick laughed before the phone rang.
"hold on, hopefully it's my darling wife." he said sarcastically, before picking it up and saying,
"hello."
"Nick, it's Bill. Any word about the cruise."
"Were going but didn't Honor call and tell you that this morning."
"I haven't heard from her all day."
"I see." Nick nodded. Drew turned to him, hearing the tone in his voice.
"Well I just wanted to call and get it finalized. Where is Honor anyways?"
"She went out to New York to spend Jeff's birthday with him and his kids."
"No wonder I didn't get a call. Well, how about I send you all the information to you, and you can later fax them over to her hotel or something."
"That sounds good to me. See you later Bill."
"Bye." he said hanging up. Nick placed the phone on the charger and looked over at Drew.
"What was that all about?"
"Apparently my manager is having a little too much fun in New York."
"Meaning?" Drew asked carefully sitting himself on top of the counter.
"Meaning that Jeff's day should me more merrier."
Drew looked at Nick for a second, then suddenly comprehending what he was saying, nodded his head.
"I see what your getting at. Well Honor should be just as happy. Its been three months since the last time they've seen each other."
"Lord, I'll never get a hold of her." Nick moaned, rolling his eyes.
"Get over it." Drew laughed.

Justin looked down at his watch again, then looked toward the elevator.
"Where are they." he moaned, taking a seat next to Alyssa who was contently playing with a barbie.
"Honow said they were taking a shower. Maybe its a long one." She suggested. Justin groaned, then pulled her closer to him.
"believe me sweetie, we don't want that to be the case."
Alyssa nodded, then continued to fix her barbies hair. Justin looked up at the elevators again to see Honor and Jeff walking out, arms wrapped around each others waist.
"About time." he said getting up. He pushed Jeff Jr.'s stroller with one hand, while holding Alyssa's hand with the other.
"Hey guys. How was your night?" Jeff asked as he bent down to pick Alyssa up while Honor checked Jeff's diaper.
"Wow, they actually look decent, I'm amazed." Honor looked up at Justin.
"Shut-up." he laughed as Jeff putt Alyssa down.
"What took you guys so long. Me and Justin were wating fowever fow you guys." Alyssa said as they started to walk to the parking lot. Honor and Jeff looked over at each other while Justin looked on in amusement.
"Well Alyssa," Jeff began.
"You see 'lyssa, your dad kept me up all night because he's a rough sleeper, so i was really tired this morning." Honor cut him off. Jeff started to laugh while Justin looked at them in disgust.
"oh." Alyssa smiled looking back at the front of her.
"You guys are nasty." Justin mouthed as they neared the car. Jeff shrugged while Honor laughed.
"You ask J and you shall recieve." she simply said.

[Biondo Sorto]

I wanted to thank everyone for the comments on the story!! :hehe:

[Biondo Sorto]

Chapter 9
For the rest of the week, Honor spent as much time as she could with Jeff and the kids. She kinda regretted going back early, but knew that it was for the better. To much of Jeff was a bad thing. At least while he was on tour and she was working as well. On the last day Jeff had decided to do something really special for Honor, seeing as he wouldn't see her for another three months. So he arranged his schedule so she could go to all of his show's with him, and be able to spend the night with him later on. Alyssa and Jeff Jr. had left when they were all in Miluwakee, so he had her all to himself. He checked his breathe one more time, before turning around and looking around for Honor. Then, he saw her walking out the elevator. he smiled as they spotted each other, and watched her walk over.
"Now don't you look nice." Honor commented, looking Jeff up and down. Jeff smiled down at her.
"A tux is nothing compared to the dress your wearing."
Honor looked down at herself and inwardly sighed relief. She had hoped that he would like the dark blue long halter dress. She had seen it back in New York and had instantly wanted to buy it. Now, she was happy she could for the occasion.
"Why thank you Mr. Timmons." she smiled at him. Then she looked behind him.
"A limo. You know, I didn't think you were so fond of limo's."
"Well tonight I'm making an acception." he smiled, helping her in. Then he followed and they started thier long ride to thier next destination.
"Are you sure that were just going out to eat?"
"Maybe. That's for me to know and you to find out." he smiled at her again. She raised an eyebrow and said,
"I should of known there was something up your sleeve when you told me to dress formally. A year and six months we've been going out and I still get caught in your suprises."
"That's the beauty out of this relationship." he laughed, resting his head on her shoulder.
"Tired?" she asked.
"Very much." he mumbled.
"Well maybe we should go back to the hotel and just eat room service-" she began. He cut her off.
"No. I'm not gonna end a good evening cause I'm tired. I can sleep later."
"All right, if you insist." she began.
"oh I insist." he smiled. Soon the limo ride came to an end and Jeff lifted his head off of Honors shoulder.
"Well....were here."
"Where's here?" she laughed.
"You gotta get out to see."
"All right." she smiled at him. He looked at her, gave her a quick kiss on the cheek, then got out of his side. The chaffeur helped Honor out, and she looked all around her.
"Jeff....." she began.
"Yeah?" he asked, coming toward her.
"We....we can't eat here." she said turning around toward him.
"Why not?"
"Cause.....well....Jeff, you can't eat in a middle of a park."
"Follow my lady, and you shall recieve." he said, extending his arm out.
"All right." honor said skeptically, taking his arm and following Jeff.
"Wait." Jeff said after a while.
"What?" Honor said, looking up after him.
"Close your eyes."
"Why?"
"Just do it."
"All right." Honor sighed.
"Okay, Just follow my lead."
"with my eyes closed, oh sure." honor joked.
"What, I can't lead you?" Jeff asked as they started to walk again.
"Off or on the dance floor hun. Last I recall, I went home in an ambulance because of both."
"oh hardy, har, har babe. Very funny."
"I know." Honor smiled.
"Well, were here so in three, open your eyes, okay."
"All right." honor sighed.
"One, two..three. Open your eyes babe." Honor slowly opened her eyes and looked around amazed.
"You do cease to amaze me." she sighed happily, taking the sceneary all in. Jeff had arranged for the park to be lit up by candle light everywhere. There was vase, after vase, after vase filled with roses, tulips, and lilacs. A dinner table sat in a gazebo, with a lake complimenting the background.
"I love it." honor sighed, following the path to the gazebo.
"I hoped you would." Jeff said from behind her. She looked up at him and placed a soft kiss on his lips.
"And there'll be more where that came from." she said, when she pulled away from his grasp.
"Likewise." he smiled down at her. She smiled back, then said,
"Lets eat."
"Don't have to tell me twice." he mumbled, helping her in her seat. They enjoyed the shrimp and crab dinner, and the strawberry short cake desert.
"Where to next?" Honor asked, as Jeff helped her out of her chair.
"Look behind you and see for yourself." Jeff stated simply. Honor did and looked upon a horse drawn carriage.
"You.....and you....Jeff you...." Honor managed to spit out.
"Yeah I did. I know how you always wanted to go on one." he said, helping her in.
"Yeah." Honor smiled, looking up at Jeff.
"So I thought, what the hell. I have to make this night perfect."
"Yeah, but why does the night have to be perfect. I could go anywhere with you and the night could be perfect. Just as long as it'd be me and you."
"I know but..........hey enough of this. Why don't we sit back and enjoy the scenary."
"all right." Honor smiled at him. They spent the rest of the ride in silence, with a couple of make-out sessions now and then. When the ride had stopped, they both decided to just walk around for a bit.
"Jeff." Honor finally asked after a while.
"Yeah."
"Why have you been so....so...quiet. That's not like you Jeff, what's wrong."
Jeff sighed and looked over at her. It was now or never.
"Honor." he began.
"yeah."
"how long have we've known each other."
"Like I said earlier, a year and six months."
"No we've been going out for that long. Technically we've know each other for two years."
Honor thought about this in her head and nodded.
"True. I just hate thinking about those other six months, and playing hard to get with you." she joked. He smiled, trying to set himself to ease.
"Well, over those two years I've been doing a lot of thinking."
"okay." Honor said confused.
"I've been thinking about the divorce, my kids, and you. In fact every since you came into my life I've been thinking about you. From the moment I met you...in the zoo of all places I knew I had to get to know you. To me you were an angel in this crazy metrapolis of a world. And when you ignored me for those first six months, I thought either I was either losing my touch, or me and you were just never meant to be. Which would of killed me more, because without you in my life I wouldn't have been able to do the things I've done over the past two years. You've helped me become a better man, and you've helped my children to become the great people they are today.
"then the glorious day came and you and I became one. At first I thought that it wouldn't be anything at all, just a casual dating thing. But soon liked became adore, and adore became love. I feel in love with you without even realizing it. But I knew it once tour started. I started to miss your smile, your laugh, your hold, and your kiss. I missed hearing your voice, and watching you from afar when you were busy doing something. I missed the way you used to kid with me, or the way you used to tease me about the little faces I made when I danced. I even started to miss you more than my kids, and that scared me more. I have never craved anything more in this world than the way that I crave you. Honor Rose Ransòins..." he began, getting on one knee. Honor started breathing hard as he grabbed her hand.
"Honor Rose Ransòins, I know that we will have times where we will have our disagreements. I know there will be times where our love may not be enough for this relationship, and that we may both want to back out of love. But I also know that there are going to be times when I look in your eyes and know that your the one. Your really the one, and I would't want it to be any other way. To me your a timeless beauty, and I can only live for you love. So would you do me the honor, Honor, in being my wife?" he asked, smiling up at her. Honor looked at him, then at the ring he pulled out of his pocket.
"Are you serious?" she asked after a while. Jeff nodded. Honor looked at him again and smiled.
"Well then, of course I do, I will, yes!!" she smiled through tears.
"Really?" Jeff asked.
"Really."
"Oh, you've just made me the happiest, richest man on this side of the world." he smiled picking her up and twirling her around.
"Richest." Honor laughed.
"Rich in love baby, rich in love." he smiled at her. She smiled back as he slipped the ring on her finger.
"God I love you." he said after a while.
"I love you too." honor mumbled, leaning up and kissing him. They kissed for a while before Jeff pulled away.
"I think its time to go back to the hotel."
Honor moaned as Jeff pulled her closer to him.
"Yeah, I think so too." she nodded.

[Biondo Sorto]

All right, hoped you enjoy. I'll add more to this chapter later, that took a lot out of me, lol. :faint: Who would've thought it take so much just to write a dang proposal scene ;D

[StargateGirl]

:cries: Awww! That was so beautiful. :cries:

[Biondo Sorto]

*Thanks Ann :wink: . Bear with me for next chapter or two, i don't know how to word what I'm trying to get at. Hopefully you understand what I'm trying to do!*

Nick looked up from packing his clothes and saw Jessica walk into the room.
"Hey." she said briskly, coming up to him and giving him a kiss on the cheek.
"Hi." he said looking back down as he folded his last shirt and zipped up his suitcase.
"Think you can bring up my suitcase?" she sighed, laying down on the bed.
"Nope, my ride should be here any minute and I have to leave ASAP."
Jessica sat up and looked at him.
"Where ya going?" she asked after a while.
"A cruise in the bahamas for a couple of days. Promo stuff." he shrugged. Jessica slowly nodded her head.
"Where you planning on telling me anytime."
"I was going to leave the same thing you left me a week ago. Wouldn't have hurt you too much." he picked up his suitcase.
"I'll be back sometime next week. After the cruise I got some more promo to be done."
"Right." she nodded. He looked over at her and sighed.
"Don't start with the harsh silence. I hate it when you do that."
"I'm not. Have fun, call me." she said kissing him one more time and laying back down in the bed.
"All right." he sighed, walking out of the room.

Honor looked at Jeff one more time.
"What?" he asked, looking at her.
"I don't want to leave." she said after a while. He sighed.
"You have too. Its your job."
"But I won't see you for another three months. I can't stand being away from you that long. Especially now."
Jeff closed up her bag and looked over at her.
"Honor..."
"What?"
"You have to go. It's your job. I don't want you to leave either, but the thing is your going to have to support yourself until we get married. I don't want you to leave either. If I could have it my way I spend as much time as i could with you and the kids. But I can't do that, and you know it. Soon we'l have time off and we can spend as much time togather as we want. All right."
Honor looked down at her bag, then back up at him.
"Fine. All right. If you promise."
"I promise." he said, wrapping his arms around her. They held each other for a while, then pulled away.
"We better hurry up. I got to meet Nick at the Florida airport. We depart down there."
"All right," Jeff said picking up her bags,
"Lets go."

Nick looked down at his watch, then back up at the gate. He could've sworn that Honor said her flight was coming from Ohio. Maybe he had mis-heard her. Then, she saw him coming near him.
"hey!" he smiled at her. She gave a weak smile and walked past him. He gave a confused look, and caught up to her.
"Am I missing something?" he asked, walking near her. She sighed.
"No.....I'm just going to miss Jeff." she said after a while.
"Well, you get to see him soon. Nothing too big, you guys should be used to it by now. Besides, it makes seeing him the next time much better. believe me, I know." he smiled down at her.
Honor nodded, then bit her bottom lip.
"Nick." she asked once they reached baggage claim.
"Yeah?" he asked, looking over at her.
"I'm......and he...."
"Yeah." he asked. Now she was scaring him. She lifted up her left finger.
"He went through with it! Wow, congratulations, he's been meaning to for some time." Honor started to smile a little.
"I'm just bummed cause I wanted to spend some more time with him. But your right. It should be better the next time I see him. I'm not going to ruin this for us." she laughed, picking up her suitcase.
"See, there's that smile I'm so used to seeing. And hey, I promise to make it worth your while."
"I know you will Nick. That's why I can always depend on you."
Nick smiled down at her, then shook his head.
"So where are we supposed to meet?"
"Ummm....Nick, you should know that. You do have our schedule Mr. I don't trust the hotel with private information."
"Right." he smiled, looking around in his back-pack. Then he lifted the manila packet out.
"Thank you." she said as they started to walk toward the exit.
"And trust me Nick, I promise to make this worth your while. hey, how did you and Jess do after I left?"
Nick sighed.
"Were fine. I mean, we made up the later on. Then she decided to leave for something the next day, and by the time she came back, i left. I don't know, I guess were just...........I don't know." They took a seat on the bench.
"But on Newlyweds you guys looked so in love." Honor said sarcastically.
"That's the thing though. I think that because we were on camera, we were both trying to prove to the world that through everything we can still love each other. Now that the camera's are gone, well......our romance isn't like it used to be for the past couple of months."
Honor nodded.
"Well, all the better to go on this vacation so you can think it all out, right?" she said, placing her head on his shoulder.
"Yeah, I guess." he sighed just as thier car came to pick them up.

Chapter 10
By the time both of them had gotten situated, they were comfortably sitting in thier adajecent cabin, going over Nick's schedule.
"All right, so what am I going to be doing for the next couple of days?" he asked, rubbing his hands together.
"A lot. Appearences, show's, dinner, everything you can think of your doing. You have a couple of free days, but other than that your booked." Honor said looking down at her memo pad.
"Great...., so do I have anything planned for later on tonight?"
"Well, you have to sing on the out door deck for the welcome something. After that your free though."
"You wanna go to dinner or something. I mean, I won't have anything else to do, and I hate welcoming programs. At least one of the dinner lounges must be empty. Think of it as an early engagement celebration." Honor looked at him and shrugged.
"I don't mind. I was just gonna call Jeff, and the kids, and a couple of relatives. I can leave that to when your really busy, I won't have anything to do then."
"All right, let's walk up there around........fivish."
"Okay." Honor said, getting up and walking out of his room.
Soon the day went by and both were ready for dinner.
"You ready in there?" Nick knocked on the door.
"Yeah...just hold up a sec." Honor said, then went and opened the door.
"Well don't you look nice." she commented, letting Nick in the room.
"I could say the same for you. You ready?"
"Yeah." Honor said looking around, picking up her purse.
"yeah." she repeated, looking up at him.
"Good." he smiled at her. They both walked out of thier room and headed toward thier deck.
"Nervous?" Honor asked after a while, looking over at Nick. He shook his head.
"Nah."
"Okay." she said nodding her head. She waited a while, then heard,
"Well maybe a little."
"I thought you were. You always crack your knuckles before a show. I thought it was an obsession, but now I know its just a nervous gesture." she laughed.
he looked at her.
"You notice?"
"yeah. Nothing big, I'm sure Jessica picked up on it a long time ago though."
"Actually, I doubt she even notices. I think the only people who really know that is the guys, my relatives, and well now....you."
"Oh, well don't I feel special. I should hint it to Jessica one day."
"Don't bother." Nick laughed as they reached the stage area.

[StargateGirl]

aww she noticed. lol

Oooh...what's he gonna sing?? :P

[littleprincessj]

I love this story so far and cannot wait for more. Keep it up! It's excellent!

[Biondo Sorto]

*A/N for this part Nick's thoughts are going to be in italics and Honor's in bold. It'll be this way until I switch to thier POV, which is gonna be after this part, all right? Just wanted you to know:D Oh yeah, I'm not a sex scene's kinda chick, so you gotta work with what I wrote with. I think I got it down to a PG 13 instead of a PG rating, lol*
He went through with the soundcheck, then got ready as people started to pile in.
"You still nervous?" Honor asked, walking behind the stage area.
"Hmm, a little. But hey it should subside."
"Right." Honor nodded. They stood in awkward silence just as Nick was called upon stage.
"All right, wish me luck." he smiled at her.
"Luck." She said, giving him a thumbs up. He walked on stage and waited for the people to quite down.
"Okay, tonight I'm going to be singing a song that actually means a lot to me. It hasn't been out in the "public eye" so, you guys are in for a treat."
He took a sigh, looked over at Honor one more time, and started to sing the lyrics to Your the Only Place. He didn't know what had possesed over him, but when he started he couldn't stop. For some reason the lyrics to those words where touching his heart in a way it hadn't before. Soon he was finished, and he was getting a loud applause.
"Thanks, enjoy your stay, and I hope I'll be seeing the all of you." he waved, before walking off the stage.
"That was good. That was really good. No, that was superb. What in the hell happened. you haven't sang that well in a while" Honor had said once he had reached her. He smiled and gave her a hug.
"I don't know. I just got the thinking about stuff." he said as he took out his ear piece.
"Like....?" she began.
"Well.." he began.
"Tell me. Ooo, was is it a girl? Was it about the trouble you and Jess are going through? I wanna know!" Honor whined. He smiled.
"Just a girl."
"Like?"
You
"Umm, just someone who is really significant in my life right now."
"oh." Honor sighed. She looked down at her hands.
"What's wrong?" Nick asked as they started to head to a cafe/bar area they had saw earlier.
"Its nothing..."
I was hoping that you were talking about me....
She stopped. Did she mean that really?
"What's wrong?" Nick asked again, touching her lightly on the arm.
What the matter is instead of thinking about my fiance, I'm thinking of getting in the bed with you
"Nothing." she said again.
"You sure." he said again.
"Postive." she smiled at him. She shook the thoughts out of her head.
Your feeling vulnerable, and Nick's an attractive guy. You want to find the comfort in the arms of someone who isn't yours. Come on get, your head together
"I'm postive." she said again.
"All right." he smiled as they reached the cafe.

By the time the both of them had finished dinner they had already had a little too much to drink.
"Nick........did you close the door when you walked into my room earlier?" Honor asked, slurring her words.
"No, why?" Nick asked, eyes heavy from liquor.
"Because I left my key in my room. Damnit I knew I was forgettin something."
"Well then, just come into my room." he said, opening up his door. They stumbled into the room and Honor started to laugh.
"We are going to have one hell of a hangover tomorrow morning." she giggled, getting off of Nick.
"Yeah." Nick agreed. They both walked to the bed, and collaped on it.
"good thing you don't have to be anywhere 'till one, or we would be screwed." she laughed again. She didn't know why, but everything she said had seemed to be funny.
"yeah, good thing I set my alarm clock." Nick nodded.
"Ohh, that's what I got to do." Honor said getting up, but tripping over nothing. She fell on the ground and started to laugh again.
"Opps." she muttered, looking up at Nick.
"You tripped."
"I know." she said in the same tone, then laughed.
"here let me help you." Nick said helping her up. Then he slipped, and pulled the both of them back onto his bed.
"were just trippin' today." Honor said, then laughed once again. Nick chuckled then looked up at her.
damn she smells good... he thought, then leaned up and kissed her. Honor stopped laughing and eagerly kissed him back.
"Mmmm, me likes." she said after a while.
"Me likes it too." he mutttered, slowly un-zipping her sundress.
"Is us having sex going to be a bad thing or no." Honor asked, pulling away from Nick, once she had managed to take of his shirt.
"What do you think."
"Me thinks' it's a very good thing."
"Well I ain't gonna disagree." he smiled, pulling her back to him.
"Me niether." she smiled back, once she managed to pull away.

The next morning Honor woke up to someone holding on to her. She smiled and held whatever it was back. She felt comfortable, the person wasn't holding too tight, or not at all. She sighed and turned around, ignoring the headache. Who she saw beside her made her scream.

Chapter 11
Nick woke up to the sound of screaming, and shot up. Then he looked at Honor.
"We didn't..." he muttered, looking under the sheets.
"We did." he groaned, laying back down on the pillows.
"What happened." Honor asked, laying beside him.
"I don't know. My head hurts to much to even think."
Honor nodded.
"I'm in some horse [bad word]. If the press gets the hold of this, then Jessica, and hell if Jeff....lord I won't be able to have kids even if I wanted too. By that time he had probably casterated me." he sighed. Honor looked at him and laughed.
"How could you laugh at a situation like this."
"Its going to take a large knife to cut that thing off." she giggled. Nick looked over at her and smirked.
"You think that's funny?" he asked, getting a twinkle in his eyes.
"Maybe...." she smiled. Then he lunged at her and they rolled around until he was on top of her.
"oh lord." she asked after while.
"What?" he smiled down at her.
"I think Willy's gone free again." she laughed at her own comment.
"Gosh, your making me kinky." she said once she had settled down.
"You said it, not me."
"Well you need to stop getting aroused. Its not helping the situation were both in."
Nick smiled.
"I think it helps it perfectly." he smiled, bending down and kissing her again. A couple of minutes later they pulled away.
"What situation, are we in?" Honor asked, looking over at Nick as he rolled off of her.
"I don't know, you tell me."
"I think were both in some horse [bad word], like you said." she sighed. he nodded.
"But-" he began.
"but what?" she asked, looking over at him.
"What they don't know can't hurt them....."
"Nick, we-"
"It'll just be for a couple of days. We'll get off the ship and act like nothing happened."
Honor bit her lip.
"That's called cheating Nick. Say it with me, cheating."
"Honor-"
"It is. Your married. I'm engaged. It'd be a bad thing."
"Well we already did the deed. what more could hurt the situation." Honor sighed, then looked over at the clock.
"I don't know."
"It'd make me a very happy man. And I haven't been happy in a long time,"
"I haven't noticed." she said sarcastically.
"Please," he asked, sticking out his bottom lip. She looked away.
"Stop it." she said after a while.
"You know you want too." he smiled at her.

[Biondo Sorto]

Oh and thanx 4 the comments guys ;)

[StargateGirl]

*double gasp*

[Biondo Sorto]

Man, I'm loving the reactions I'm getting from ya Annie :P

[littleprincessj]

This story is great so far....can't wait to see more!

[Biondo Sorto]

*Remember this story. I just saw it when I was going through the thread and thought I add to it. So here it is. won't add to my other stories 'till later, VERY tired, lol. :D*

Honor shook her head. She DID want too. In fact, she didn't realized how much until last night. But still there was Jeff....her sweet Timmons. She shook her head.
"Nick, think about what your saying."
"I did."
"Through your head upstairs, not the one downstairs."
"I did, come on Honor, pwease?"
She looked away again. She already hurt Jeff. Could she hurt him any more with sleeping with Nick continously.
"Nick.....if we do this....we have to forget all about it. We can't act wierd around each other, we have to pretend it never happened after we leave this ship...........I......I......Jeff-"
Nick sighed. He knew how much Jeff meant to her. He was a fool to think otherwise.
"Forget I brought it up. No, your right. This is strictly a buisness relationship. Last night was a mistake."
Honor sighed as she watched him get up and walk to his bathroom. Sure what he was saying was making sense, but why did her heart tell her that this was going to be something that she would regret.

Jeff leaned back in his seat and sighed. He couldn't believe that Honor didn't call him last night. She had promised to call him, and he had waited all night for it. He looked over at his manager who had fell asleep one they got in the limo and pulled out his phone. He was pretty sure that Honor wasn't doing anything that important. Their was a couple of rings, and just when he was going to give up she picked up.
"hello?"
"How'd your first night go?"
There was silence on the end before she replied.
"Pretty fine. I slept pretty well."
"That's good."
"yeah, it is."
Silence. There was something wrong. It was in her tone of voice.
"So....what are you doing today."
"We have to do a couple of signing's, singing and yeah. The usual."
"That sounds like fun."
"More like boring. Watching in the background isn't all that its turned out to be." she laughed. He could tell she was forcing it and sighed. Something had happened and she was keeping it from him. He knew her better than she knew herself.
"What's wrong Honor?"
"Huh?"
"What's wrong?"
"Not......Nothing. Why?"
"Your lying through your teeth. Either tell me or not. I rathed you did though, I had to go through this with Trish. I don't want to go through that painful expierence again, espicially with someone I love so much."
He heard her sigh, then she spook up.
"I'm sorry Jeff....its just last night some bartender hit on me. He made me feel uncomfortable. He riled me up, and I started to cuss him out. Nick pulled me away and calmed me down, but I'm still riled up. I told him I was engaged and he still messed with me. It just made me really mad I suppose. Sorry, I forgot about it when I fell asleep, but remembered when I woke up."
Jeff sighed relief.
"Its fine babe. You were just starting to scare me. It'll be all right, your with Nick. I trust him. I'm sure you'll be fine."
"I hope. But I gotta go and take a shower. I woke up later then usual, didn't set my darn alarm. I'll call you.....later on tonight?"
"Sounds like a plan to me. Bye, I love you."
"I love you too. Bye."
He hung up his phone and closed his eyes. She was starting to scare him, but was relieved to know she was just over-reacting. Furthermore, she had Nick there with her. He trusted Nick almost as much as he trusted Honor.

Honor couldn't believe what she did. She had never lied to Jeff before. She felt almost guity. She sighed, but almost screamed when she saw Nick standing at the door in a towel..
"So you couldn't tell him?"he asked.
"I don't see you calling your wife and telling her." She shoot back. Nick sighed.
"I didn't mean it......listen I'm sorry."
"Its fine, I have to get ready. You have a busy day and its going to be eleven soon."
Nick nodded, bit his bottom lip, and then walked out the room. This was hard. She was hurting him without even realizing it. In a way he wanted her to tell Jeff. He didn't know why, he just felt that then it would all be in his advantage. Then again, that wouldn't have been the smartest thing to do. He shut the door and sighed. The last time he had this much trouble with his girls, his voice didn't know if it was a baritone or a soprano. And still, he wasn't THAT bad of a flirt. He shook his head and decided to just accept the truth. For once in his life, he had met the perfect woman and wouldn't be able to win her heart.

[littleprincessj]

Thanks, like making my readers happy!!! :D
Srry took so long, again been muchos busy. Of course, when I'm too lazy to write I can alway read Annie's stories to keep me entertained!! :popcorn:

[Biondo Sorto]

Honor looked over at Nick as they started to sit up the meet and greet.
"Excuse me." she heard a small voice say from behind her. She turned around and saw a pretty blonde.
"Yeah?"
"Your Nick Lachey's publicist, right?"
"Yeah, I am."
"Wow, aren't you lucky."
"Thanks."
"I mean you get to go work with Nick AND you go out with Jeff."
Honor looked at her and shook her head.
"How did you know that."
"Its been all over the news lately. Well anyways, it must be hard working for a hot guy and dating one."
"Well, not if the hot guy is your friend and the other one is your fi-, your boyfriend." she quickly corrected herself. The girl nodded.
"If I were you I have some trouble. Imagine Nick in your lap and you can jump on him anytime. Then again he is married, so I guess in your case its kinda a no win situation."
"Right...excuse me but I have to go." Honor excused herself and walked off toward Nick, who was talking to the cruise publicist.
"Excuse me Jill, mind if I cut in?" she asked, taking a seat beside Nick.
"Don't mind at all, I was just about to leave." Jill nodded, then walked off.
"What's up?" Nick asked.
"Money hungry blondes are harrasing me again."
Nick laughed. Even if they were in a awkward situation, that was still thier "inside joke".
"Thought you got a restraining order from all of them."
"well I guess they never read the fine print because there still coming after me."
Nick nodded, then asked,
"After this can we talk?"
honor sighed.
"I don't know.....maybe."
Nick nodded and left it at that. For the rest of the day, Honor tried her best to avoid Nick. But when you work for the guy it was kinda hard to do, Eventually, dinner came and Honor p[arse]ed. She really wasn't hungry, she had lost her appetite through out the day. Now she was on her bed, looking over some of the events that Nick had to do. Half way in reading, she heard him come in. Thinking he was still fully clothes, she walked next door not expecting to see a half naked Nick.
"Oh sorry....I...yeah." she exclaimed, then shut the door. After gathering her thoughts she shook her head and sat back down on the bed.
"you rang?" Nick asked a couple of minutes later, pulling a shirt over his head.
"yeah....I just...umm, wanted to go over your schedule tomorrow."
"All right." Nick shrugged, walking over to her bed and taking a seat. She noticed his bluntness and tried to ignore it.
"You have to sing down at the quad, and don't forget that you signed up to that "win a date with you" thing. So after you sing, there's gonna be a contest and afterwards you take the lucky winner out to dinner....." she cut herself short. Nick nodded.
"Is that all?" he asked.
"yeah." she said. It really wasn't, she just didn't know what else to say.
"Fine." he said getting up. She watched him get up and walk out the door.
"Get a grip." she muttered, falling back down on her bed.

Nick went to bed early, preparing to get himself ready for the new day. Despite this, he still couldn't get himself to close his eyes. he kept on thinking about the woman who was sleeping next to him. he heard her shuffle around, talk on the phone, then, he [arse]umed, go to bed. He sighed. Their was already wierdness. The things that occur when you cross the "friendship border". In a sad attempt to close off all of his thoughts, he closed his eyes and forced himself to go to sleep. He was soon awaken when he heard his door open.
he looked up and saw Honor standing in the door way.
"hey." she slowly said.
"hey." he repeated.
"Couldn't get any sleep." she sighed. He nodded and turned on the side lamp.
"wanna talk about it.?" he asked, sitting up. She walked over and took a seat beside him.
"I thought about what you told me earlier."
He raised a brow. He had said a lot of things earlier.
"Like...?" he asked unsure. She sighed, then bent over and kissed him. This caught him off guard, but he kissed her just as eagerly. They fell back on his bed her on top of him.
"You sure you want to do this?" he asked as he pulled away. Honor bit her bottom lip.
"I think its what I want.....in fact I'd be stupid to deny it." she slowly said. he smiled and leaned up and kissed her again, slowly reaching for the lamp cord and turning off the light.

When they woke up a couple of hours later, there was hectic going around. They heard screams, and yells, and everything else that could lead to pure panic. They both got up and looked for thier clothes that were lied scattered on the floor.
"What's going on?" honor asked Nick.
"I don't know but I'm about to find out." he muttered getting up and opening the door.
"Excuse me." he asked an employee who was rushing people to the deck.
"Mr. Lachey, you need to get to top deck now!!" he exclaimed as honor pocked her head out of her door.
"What's going on...." she asked as the employee grabbed her arm and dragged her to Nick.
"Go to TOP DECK!!" he screamed. Honor held on to her bag and looked at Nick who just shrugged his shoulder.
"I'll grab some jackets." he siad. A couple of minutes later they were both walking to the top deck, where more madness was happening.
"What's going on?" Honor asked Nick, this time a bit worried. He held on to her and shook his head.
"I....don't...know...." he said as he looked around.
"Nick! Honor!" they heard someone scream thier name. They turned around and saw Jill attempting to go to them through the crowd of madness.
"What's going on?" Honor asked.
"We hit something. The ship is drowning. If the captain is correct, were supposed to go under in a hour."
Honor stopped. She couldn't breathe, she couldn't think. she lost her strength and collasped. Nick caught her. Was this her her reward for being decitful. It was on hell of an reward.
"What about life boats? There's gotta be some lifeboats."
Jill shook her head.
"Whatever we hit messed up our engine. blew up the whole left side. Half of our lifeboats were on the left side. As for the boats on the right, there damaged. Really bad. We can't get off this ship. A boat can come but not in enough time. Were gonna die. "
Nick took it all in. he was gonna die. This was how his future was going to be. Somehow, he wasn't scared. In fact, he was quite relaxed.
"thanks Jill."
"you welcome. Don't tell anyone else. There's enough panic as is."
"we won't." he replied. he looked down at Honor who was shivering. She looked scared. he could tell she was trying to be calm but the realization of death was too much for her.
"Wanna go back downstairs. Maybe we could go to sleep. I'd rather die with you by my side than to die all alone."
Honor forced herself to smile.
"yeah, I like that too."


End of Part 1

[StargateGirl]

they didn't hear the explosion?

poor Jeff.... first his fiance cheats on him..now she's going to die. :cries:

[Biondo Sorto]

Part 2

Chapter 12
Jeff smiled at his fans one more time before stepping into the luxirous limo.
"now that was a good signing. You seemed to be in a happy mood today, mind telling the secret?" his manager, Mike, asked.
"Blame it all on my angel." Jeff smiled. Mike shook his head.
"The sooner this wedding the better. You guys are so happy its sick."
"I know." Jeff's smile only got wider. Mike shook his head and turned on the radio.
Today is a day of mourning, as a cruise ship...
"Can I listen to some music?" Mike said sarcastically, about to turn the knob to another station.
"No, turn that up." Jeff said concerned. Mike shrugged and turned up the volume.
Again, today is a day of mourning as cruise ship Exponage over-flooded and sank at 3 a.m. this morning. News on the ship was that it supposendly hit a rock, damaging the left engine. No sign of lifeboats were found. News just in that celebrity and heart-throb Nick Lachey was on the boat. No bodies have been found. To get more on this please log on to...
Jeff's heart stopped. What they were saying couldn't be true....it couldn't be true.
"What's wrong?" Mike asked, turning the radio station off.
"Did you not hear that. Nick may be dead and..." he couldn't get himself to say it. Mike slowly shook his head.
"Honor works for Nick. She may be dead too..."
"Don't say that." Jeff muttered, then shook his head.
"cancel all of my appearences. I have to go out there."
"Jeff I-"
"DO IT!!" Jeff screamed.

Jessica was shopping with her mom, her sister Ashlee, and her friend CaCee when her cell phone rang.
"hello." she said, not paying any attention to who it was on the other line.
"Jessica, its Jeff."
"Hi Jeff, whatcha doing calling me?"
"You haven't seen the news, have you?"
jessica shook her head.
"I've been shopping all morning, why?"
"Jessica don't panick, we can't confirm it but-" he stopped short. This made Jessica uneasy.
"what is it Jeff."
"Nick may be dead."
Jessica lost her breathe. When she could speak, she sputtered,
"What?"
"The boat he was on hit a rock. they haven't found any bodies. I'm going out there now. I have to see if there alive, Honor and him."
Jessica slowly shook her head. She still didn't comprehend anything that he was saying. All she could think of was Nick.
"Pray for them Jess. They may be all right. I gotta go, call you later. Do me a favor and call Drew, he deserves to know."
"I will." Jessica managed to say. She slowly hung up her phone and looked at her mom.
"What is it Jess?"
"Nick may.....his boat hit........they haven't." she couldn't come out and say it all.
"What is it honey?" tina repeated.
"Nick's boat hit a rock. It sank. he and Honor may not be alive. Nick may......" she couldn't say anymore because she had p[arse]ed out.

*A/N: Just wanted to remind y'all that from here on the blue color font is Nick POV and the red color font is Honor's. So if I switch from black, to blue, to black, to red, back to blue, you know what's going on and you guys aren't confused. All right, enjoy.*


I don't exactly remembered what happened. It happened so fast. There was screams, then darkness, then silence. Soon I felt cold water rush on me. I remember the lights came back on and......looking up to one of the purest bluest eyes I've ever seen. Then it was darkness and Honor was slipping from my hold and.........where was Honor?
I opened up my eyes and looked around. The sun was rising. Pink, blue, orange and purple were reflecting off the sky into the water. There was so much water. And sand. Where was I? How'd I get here? I looked around. There wasn't anything for miles around. I looked back at the ocean. There was little debris, but no sign of a sinking. How WAS I gonna get off this island. I sat back down. Then the realization hit me. If I didn't do anything, I would die.

Jeff jumped out of the car the minute it stopped.
"Any word?" he asked a sea attendent who looked to be in charge. He looked at him, then asked,
"Who are you? What are you doing on this base?"
"I'm Jeff Timmons. My girlfriend, Honor Raison, happened to be on the Esponage. She was Nick Lachey's publicist."
The guy nodded and waved his hand.
"Follow me."
Jeff did as he told and as the guy started to talk.
"My name Jermie. I've been up all night trying to send Naval recruits out to look for people. So far there's been no found personel. But luck was on our side. At about 8 a.m. this morning we got the exact coordinate of where the ship sank. However there's barely any debris left, so if your girlfriend didn't die with the ship then she definatly must be floating around somewhere, dead or alive."
Jeff nodded as they entered a command center.
"So...there's not any hope that she's alive?" he asked.
Jermie shrugged.
"if you would of asked me that earlier I would have said no. Fortunatly I just got word that there is an accumulation of small islands near there area of the sinking. Because there so small, however, there not chartered. So if your girlfriend is alive, she is probably on one of those islands."
"And my friend, Nick?" Jermis shrugged.
"If there alive and are on a island, and they can survive off of something, then yeah, its possible. But that is, however, a very small possibility."
Jeff wanted to ask, Then why look? but didn't want to give the guy any reason to NOT look on the islands. So instead he nodded his head and asked,
"Are you sending a navy cruiser to those islands?"
Jermie looked up and nodded.
"yeah, why?"
"Think I could board it?"

I know....its a very good thing, ain't it Annie!! :D :wink:

lol :P

[Biondo Sorto]

I looked all around. I didn't know where the hell I was. Then it hit me. I was holding on to Nick, and he was holding on to me, and I was slipping......no, something was pulling me but what? I got up and looked around. Sandy shores and blue see surronded me for miles and miles. I clung on to what was left of my jacket. So I was stranded on an island. All alone. I couldn't be alone though, someone must have survived. but if they survived, wouldn't I have spotted someone? And Nick....where was Nick? I wanted Nick with me right now. I wanted Jeff with me right now. I didn't like being alone. Scared, I laid back down and closed my eyes. I didn't want to think of it all again. I just wanted to sleep it all away......

Jessica got out of the limo before it had even stopped.
"Jessica, I'm sure Nick's all right, you just can't go and jump out of a moving vehicle." Her dad exclaimed as he followed her into the Reserve Headquarters.
"I don't care, I want to find my husband!!!" she exclaimed in a hurt tone before she stopped a p[arse]ing crew member.
"You!"
The guy turned around.
"Are you addressing to me?"
"Where's my husband?" she yelled. The guy looked at the young woman. She was short, had long blonde hair, and brown eyes. She looked like she had been crying for many hours.
"You Jessica?"
"Why do you need to know."
"I'm Jermie. Jeff warned me about you." he said, walking off. Jessica ran toward him.
"You talked to Jeff?"
"Yeah, just talked to him a couple of hours ago. Right now he's on a cruiser looking for his fiance and your husband."
Jessica scrunched her face, then thought of something.
"Jerman?"
"Jermie." Jermie replied flatly.
"Whatever, is there any chance I can fly on to that cruiser?"
"there is......?"
"Can I..."
"Your going to have to wait another hour before we get the chopper to go out there, until then, stay here." he said walking off. Jessica moaned and fell to the floor.
"Don't worry honey, I'm sure Nick's safe wherever he is..." her dad said, coming up beside her.


When I finally got out of my shock and quit my crying I made my way around the island. So I could die....I was at least gonna die trying. After an hour of searching there wasn't any luck. I didn't know what to do. I missed Drew, I missed the guys, my mom, dad, Jess, and more importanly, Honor. I could only pray that she was okay. soon, after thinking, I fell into a deep sleep. I dreamt about a lot of things, my past, what was my present, and how my future looked to be. When I woke up I saw a huge...boat? It was coming right toward me. I'd scream but I lost my voice screaming before. So I waved, waved until I tripped in the sand and fell into complete darkness.

Jeff looked down at Honor as she softly slept. After a couple of hours of unfortunate luck, a crew member had spotted the small island and someone on it. He cried tears of joy when he found out it was Honor. She started to move in her sleep,and eventually looked up at Jeff.
"What....am I.....Jeff?" she asked uncertainly. He nodded and kissed the top of her head.
"Its me." he smiled at her.
"you can't be here, I'm on a island."
"Were on a island. Now your headed home."
"Oh." she got up and looked around, but fell back in pain.
"Relax baby. You need your rest. You need all the sleep you can get right now."
"okay...." she said, falling back in the bed. The she shot up again.
"Where's Nick? he has to okay...he has to be...."
"he's fine, he's in the next room with Jessica. Your both lucky, you were on islands that were a couple of meters apart. I'm suprised you didn't see each other."
"I thought he'd died and I was doomed to die too..." she drifted off.
"its all right baby. Were going home. Reminder, when we go on our honeymoon, we are not going via boat."
Honor laughed and took his hand.
"no, lets go somewhere inland."
"yeah." he looked at her and brushed some hair out of her face.
"Sleepy?"
"uh huh."
"You should go to sleep."
"you should go to sleep with me."
"No, I can't....."
"Sure you can...just hop in." she said, making room for him. He hesistated and stepped into the bed with her.
"See, I told you." she said as she clung on to him.
"I should known to never doubt you." he said, holding her clsoe to his body.
"No." she said kissing his neck. When she pulled back she whispered,
"I never wanna be that far apart from you ever."
"Believe me baby, I don't either." he said softly before they both dazed off into a deep sleep.

[StargateGirl]

Aw.. :)

[littleprincessj]

Aww....I'm liking it...a lots! Can't wait for more!

[Biondo Sorto]

<span style="font-family:Times"> I looked all around me and smiled when I spotted someone I knew.
"Jess.....?" I asked.
"yeah, its me baby." she smiled, taking my hand.
"Where......in the hell am I?"
"In......I forgot the hospitals name but some hospital in Florida, why?"
"I could've sworn I was on an island before."
"You were but luckily we got to you in time."
I smiled, then grew tense. I think Jessica sensed it because she asked,
"What's wrong?"
"Where's Honor? I need to know she's all right. I wouldn't be able to live with myself if I made it and she didn't...."
"Calm down baby. She's doing fine. They found her right after we found you. She's with Jeff right now."
I sighed relief.
"That's good. I don't even remember what happened afterwards, just that she was missing. And the thing was she was near me before, and when I woke up on the island I thought I was the only one who made it."
"Its fine now baby. Your both going to be fine."
"Right." I said, laying back in the bed.
Me and Honor had to stay in the hospital for a course of three weeks. Two weeks in Jessica and Jeff had to leave to continue to promote their albums. Me and Jeff talked a lot, as did Jessica and Honor. I kinda felt bad about lying to one of my best friends about what happened on the ship. Still, I was itching to see Honor. Right after Jess and Jeff left, I got out of bed and decided to walk to Honor's room. I mean, I was weak but I knew she was just three rooms down from me. Finally I made it, and I saw her in her bed. She had her gl[arse]es on and was looking through something.
"Hey sleepyhead." I said. She looked up and smiled at me.
"Hi Nick. You are doing better." her smile grew brighter as I walked toward her.
"Yeah.....wow, don't you look beautiful."
she attempted to hide her blush and said,
"Thank you. You look good too. Wow, now I don't have to worry about you. I thought Jeff and Jess were lying when they said you were doing good but there right, you look good."
"Thanks. Again,you do too."
"thanks."
She looked back down at her papers.
"Working already?"
"Yeah, but I'm too tired to comprehend anything. I guess I'll look over this later. Can you place them on the nightstand."
"Sure." I said grabbing the papers and placing them on the table next to me.
"So......I guess the next question is what are we going to do after this?"
"Well, we got two weeks off when were released from the hospital. So, nothing really."
"You going to spend some time with Jeff?"
"A week with him, a week back in L.A. with the kids. You?"
"Don't know. May annoy Drew and go back to Cinccy. Depends."
I shrugged. She nodded as Jeff walked in.
"So this is where you went." I heard him say as he walked over to Honor and started to look around.
"I didn't believe you guys so I had to see if Honor was all right. We've just been talking."
"Kudos, hey babe."
"yeah."
"Have you seen my wallet."
"you mean the wallet you placed under my pillow because you didn't trust the hospital staff. yeah, I've seen it."
"Thanks." he smiled at her as she handed it to him.
"Okay bye for real. I'll see you next week."
"Bye." she smiled before he bent down and gave her a kiss. I didn't know what it was, but seeing them together like that made me jealous, really jealous.

I pulled away and watched Jeff walk out the room, then looked back at Nick.
"What?" I asked.
"Nothing." he shook his head. I knew he was lying.
"Liar."
"Its nothing. Its stupid."
"Just tell me."
"Hmmmm...nah."
"Please?"
"you guys still going get married?"
I looked at him, then asked,
"you and Jess still married?"
"Yeah." He sighed. It couldn't be that Nick still had feelings for me.
"Nick?"
"Huh?"
"You still thinking about what happened on the cruise."
"Well....."
"Forget it. That cruise can only lead to bad memories. Look at what happened. We did something we shouldn't have and look what God did to us. Were lucky to still be alive."
"Right." he sighed. I bit my lip and grabbed his hand.
"I still love ya Nick, but we can't love each other like that."
"I know. I'm cool." he smiled at me. I smiled back but knew he was lying. But this was the way things had to be.
"Cool." I said, lying back down in my bed.
